When I was 14 I lost my Dad to a horse accident. He was doctoring by himself on a colt and well, the details aren’t fun to think about. I try and appreciate (because I know he would) that he truly died doing what he loved, and went out with his spurs still ringing.
His memory inspires almost everything I do. I named this business Happy Trails because thats how he’d sign everything. As a little girl I can remember little love notes. One in particular was written on a ripped off paper towel holding a fresh picked pasture bouquet - the kind money can’t buy. He always picked me Indian Paintbrushes and as you can see they are scattered all over the website. His memory, his sweet sentiment - it matters to me.
About 16 years after loosing him I went through quite a bit mentally. Depression hit due to delayed grief and added pain of selling our family ranch. As healing tends to come through finding meaning I slowly curated what I now call Legacy Sessions. I realized I have the God given gift through my talent behind the camera and the unique life experience to intentionally capture the family ranching operation. In short, I know I’m made for this.
